On episode 103 of the Green Root Podcast (the official podcast of Eco-Integrity Alliance), Hudson Kingston, legal director for CURE, battles government plans in Minnesota to greenwash dirty, forest-killing “biomass” energy by ignoring carbon emissions from incinerating trees and trash for industrial-scale electricity.

Host Josh Schlossberg talks with Hudson about:

-How the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission wants to classify biomass energy as “carbon free” despite tree burning emitting more CO2 than coal.

-Risks to environmental justice communities from increased air pollution.

-Devastating impacts on public lands and Native American reservations.

-How we shouldn’t be switching from one polluting, climate-busting energy source (coal) to another (“biomass”).

-How this decision could have ramifications for greenwashing forest and trash incineration in Minnesota and across the U.S.

The mission of Eco-Integrity Alliance (eco-integrityalliance.org) is to unite U.S. grassroots ecosystem advocates through common campaigns of mutual support.
